**** I’ve been calling for this for years. It’s so much more than lifting weights and running sprints this is something Chip Kelly pioneered in college football - so it’s only been a thing for 10 years or so by our competitors and many still haven’t bought into it.

Now we’re ******. On a side note.. had a friend that interviewed for the position - he’s been around Auburn under Malzahn and has a fitness lab up in Alabama that he runs now. He’s younger but very well regarded in the industry.. this dude must be off the charts if they chose him instead.

There’s a reason Saban alerted the Alabama brass to look at Mario as a possible replacement when he finally retired. Dude observes everything and is such an Alpha, he can command the deep pockets of boosters and bring in professionals.

So Cristobal wasn't kidding when he said he'd only take the job if assurances were met.

They've essentially handed him a blank cheque.

This!

This is something talked about for 15 years+, I remember posters bringing this up that it was an arms race and we werent even in it not paying for certain services, doing camps, investing in programs and even our fans at time were in denial, saying it was lies and not needed and would rather stone the messenger than really look at it.. Still happened til Mario said it was ****** run mom and pop operation and needed severe investment..

Yep. We were called “mopes”. Can you believe that?
